Brief summary
The objective of the trial is to study whether daily treatment with liraglutide improves endogenous insulin secretion, postpones progression to overt Type 1 diabetes, and is tolerable and safe in subjects aged 10-30 years, who are positive for multiple islet autoantibodies and have dysglycemia.
Interventions
Daily subcutaneous injections with increasing doses up to 1.8 mg per day. Duration of treatment 6 months and thereafter follow-up of 6 months.
